What Library Media says:
Library Media Connection (May/June 2010)

Choices?we all make them and they have consequences?both positive and negative. Often it is hard for students to see the impact of some of the decisions they make. Seeger?s book clearly paints a picture for students about what happens each time a different decision is made. Using beautiful illustrations from the beach and three simple seals, she shows students what happens as the ball is passed between the two groups. It is easy to see that when one group has the ball, the other is sad. However, if they all play together, everyone is happy. With little text, the focus is on the bright and colorful images used to teach students a difficult concept with an example that is easy to understand. This book will have many different connections and possibilities in using it with students, from character education to writing. Highly Recommended. Carl A.
